Week 1

Introducing Minibeasts!

Go out into your garden or, if you can, go on a short walk together. What bugs can you find? Use the attached insect hunt sheet to help. If you do not have access to a printer, you could make a list of all the bugs you find together.

Can you take some photos of the bugs you see and send them to the class email address?

Have a look at the attached pictures of different bugs and insects. Can you name them all? which one is your favourite? What are its features- how many legs does it have? How does it move? What colour is it? Where does it live?

There is a sorting activity attached below to complete - Can you sort out the insects that do or do not have legs? If you do not not have access to a printer- why don't you draw some different pictures for your child to sort out.

Do you have any stories with bugs in them? Why don't you spend some time reading them together with your child.
